Anyone know what wires to change to make the ARB lockers work independantly?
By default Rear must be engaged for front to work.
Sometimes it would be handy for front only to be in. Eg to pull front sideways without it wanting to just go straight ahead as it does with both engaged.
I figure front is powered from rear switch so will need its own power supply from compressor switch at least.

Re: Independant control over dual ARB Lockers
It's pretty simple if you have the wiring diagram to follow. I just disconnected the power feed to the front locker switch (which comes from the rear switch) and split the the power feed to the rear locker switch to go to both switches ...does that makes sense?

Quick google search found this...

...the number 2 pin on the front locker switch is the one that needs to be the same wire as the #2 on the rear switch

Re: Independant control over dual ARB Lockers
best thing that i did with the lockers is have the front seperate from the back i have used the front only many times now where if the rear was engaged it would of thrown the truck sideways etc
good move

good move

Yes, we always had them seperate on the Mercedes Bulk Fertilizer spreaders, there is always times for front only or back only or both, seemed like a handicap with the default setup.
